Sexist Vintage Comics

11 Inappropriate and Sexist Vintage Comic Book Moments

Holy innuendo, Batman! Back in the day, comic books were a favored form of child's play, but who were we kidding? Judging from some of their — unintentionally? — suggestive situations, it's no wonder adults collected these cartoons too. And don't get me started on the sexist lessons being taught here. In honor of Comic-Con kicking off today, check out these inappropriate and sexist vintage comic book moments!

It was a different time. I'm really sick of people taking stuff like this out of context and calling it "sexist". It was just the way it was back then. If these comics were printed today, you'd have an argument. Things aren't all better for women today, anyway. In some ways things were actually better for women back then. They were actually appreciated for looking after the home, for example. Today women are not appreciated... they are EXPECTED to have the perfect home, perfect child, perfect husband... all while advancing in their awesome career.
